Default Cobras & Corvettes

Y'all should love this. The Corvette is a ******* nasty for the mods, and just worked over everything that day.

Good vid but that car Z Eater must be on a small blower or low reading dyno to only make 650whp at 14psi. I made 700whp on 10lbs in a built 402 in my C5Z and a few guys here make the same or more power on less boost.

Through a stalled auto? This is also a stock ls2 with only a cam.

He made 649rwhp at 12psi, but only recently but it on 14psi, not to mention at the time of this video, he was only 6 of 9 ribs of the belt.

Ya that road was awesome! Tons of room to run, not much other traffic, a parking lot close by to sit between runs, and we stayed out there all day.

Stalled auto's make a huge difference in terms of showing whp on a dyno at those power levels. Most likely the converter was unlocked for the dyno pulls.

Makes sense. That set up is still a 700whp one at that boost.

It's not that the black vette was so "nasty".....it was proper. That's the way it should run.

Great vid!

Great runs. That blow vette makes me want to say screw big cube n/a and next step is slap a blower on it.

Stop thinking dyno numbers matter. We have a dyno graph on the wall of a scooter,..yes, a scooter, making another 3whp(big gain for something making 9whp) just by placing the drive wheel on a different part of the roller. Different dyno, different day,..etc.

brad, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go the blower route soon enough. I haven't even run my first bottle through the car yet but I already know I'm going to be annoyed with the whole refilling thing. I'm gonna go as big of a blower as I can afford and then let it eat on e85. most likely do cam and stall at the same time. way too damn easy in my opinion. no reason to over complicate it in my opinion
